Paris Brown, the teenager forced to stand down a week after being chosen as Britain’s first youth crime commissioner, was told yesterday that she would not face prosecution over remarks that she made on Twitter.

Kent Police had launched a criminal investigation into Ms Brown’s tweets but concluded that they did not pass the evidential test for prosecution. Ms Brown, 17, had been interviewed under caution over her remarks, in which she called homosexuals “fags”, immigrants “illegals” and travellers “pikeys”.
